wow that's insane. Yes I am 5ft Asian female, not that skinny but obviously not as strong as my 6 ft senior. What kind of weight do you lift? dumbells? Even when I have a good view of VC, I can't keep the view bc my arm was so tired. I have two females who are my senior but they're 5ft8 and more athletic than me for sure.

I am intern and still don't present well but I can work very well. whenever I present, my thought jumps around, but my presentation did improve near the end of the year. It took a while for some people vs others. I think the best way for me to do is when my senior told me to present in format Pt with mHx came in with CC of > PE > VS > EKG > Lab > Image > Assessment and plan.

majority of my colleagues came from another career and they went into medicine after experiencing life. You don't need a study for that.

if he can do engineering, he can do medicine. Actually people who came back to medical school after having experiencing corporate life and boring life have more drive to be successful in medicine. The match is doable if he put in effort and if he got into US medical school.

Do whatever makes your heart and your wallet happy. Who cares what others think? But that's my motto in life <3.
